Chapter 76

Moira set her alarm for seven o’clock, as Barclay said he would come at eight last night.

Fearing that he might arrive earlier than eight, Moira quickly got up, washed up, and changed clothes.

She felt quite reluctant to leave her room where she had slept for over twenty years, but her thoughts were quickly dispelled by the sound of the car engine downstairs.

Moira hurriedly wheeled her wheelchair to the balcony, where she could see everything at the gate.

He arrived at eight o’clock sharp, not a minute early or late.

Aiken, who always rose early, had already finished his morning run by this time.

The butler informed him that Barclay had arrived, surprising Aiken, who was reading the newspaper. “So early?”

The butler nodded and said, “Imogen has already brought him upstairs.”

Aiken quickly put down the newspaper and said, “Go and make some coffee.”

Moira also came downstairs. “Dad”
